The 2006 GMC Sierra with a 5.3-liter V8 engine requires 15.2-16.8 US quarts of orange antifreeze with OAT technology designed for American cars. It is important to mix it with water to get a 50/50 ratio if it is not pre-diluted. The coolant reservoir is located on the passenger's side under the hood, towards the middle of the firewall. Be sure to always check the levels when the engine is cool to avoid accidents. Do not open the coolant cap when the engine is hot to prevent burns from hot coolant. Signs of low antifreeze levels include high engine temperatures, warning lights, and leaks at the front of the vehicle. If you need to replace or repair the thermostat, water pump, or radiator hoses, it may affect the antifreeze levels.
